Psychiatrist Dr. Domenick Sportelli worries about the studies that have found that kids who consume pornography are more likely to engage in risky sexual behavior that is riskier, along with how porn can contribute to a poor self-image.

“It creates false expectations for these kids,” he worries, but also admits that regardless of what parents do kids will find a way to access pornography if they want to.

Dr. Sportelli encourages parents to try and take the shame out of kids being curious about porn and keep an open dialogue about sex and any questions they might have.

If parents are truly concerned about what their kids are accessing online, use browser restrictions and blocking apps on your devices, but The Doctors remind everyone that 42 percent of internet users from the age of 10 to 17 watched porn online in the last year.

Would you allow your child to access an erotic website’s sexual wellness area?
